About Well Visit Template Editor

Path: Clinical tab > Well Visit Templates

All of the Office Practicum Well Visit Templates were created by our Medical Director, Susan Kressly, M.D., F.A.A.P.

These templates are based on the Bright Futures Guidelines and contain Bright Futures Anticipatory Guidance, Developmental Milestones, Pre-Visit Surveys, Developmental Surveys, Patient/Parent Educational Handouts, and other items following Bright Futures recommendations.

NoteWhile these templates provide you with a great starting place, we strongly suggest each practice review the information included in each template, as well as orders, prior to beginning patient documentation.

In the Well Visit Template Editor you can create, remove, edit, import, and export Well Visit Templates. Additionally, you can look for invalid CHADIS surveys linked to templates. More information on validating CHADIS surveys can be found here.  The Template Editor contains two windows:

  • The Well Visit Template Editor Template List
  • The Well Visit Template Editor
